Great activity for kids too!

Published on Jan, 2025

We booked last minute for my 2.5 year old daughter and we all enjoyed decorating the mask. It’s a small shop, but very cozy. We had a great experience and it was nice to do something a little different that our daughter could participate in. Thanks!

Its great and fun to do the teacher is amazing I will recommended its a small class you learn a lot and after class there is a nice restaurant outside where you can have some drinks

A great activity

Published on Jan, 2025

What a great experience this was. We were very happy with our finished masks. It was a fun way to spend time in Venice learning about the history of Carnival masks

A must to do in Venice

Published on Dec, 2024

It was wonderful. One hour well invested in a relaxing and creative activity. Giorgio teaches you how to paint super clear and you end up surprised of what you created with his help.
